We had Salvage BBQ cater for our 50 person wedding and they did an awesome job! We got lots of compliments on the food from guests. Leif and his team were super communicative and professional and made our day go super smoothly! Would definitely recommend to other couples without hesitation.
We just had Salvage BBQ at our wedding in Portland. Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the food was! One of them said it was the best he has ever had at a wedding (and he was one of our oldest guests!). I would absolutely recommend Salvage for catering an event. We worked with Leif and he was extremely accommodating and got back to me quickly about everything.
Salvage BBQ is one of our favorite restaurants, so we were so happy to realize they do catering! They did appetizers and dinner for our 150 person wedding. The food was incredible - I cannot count the number of people who said they have never had better wedding food in their life. They were super responsive, even when 7 days before the wedding I had to change an appetizer due to a life threatening allergy I was notified of. We got to keep all of the leftovers too! Everyone said as a bride I wouldn't get a chance to eat but I definitely made sure to make time to eat this food!
Salvage BBQ catered for my wedding, and it was absolutely wonderful! The entire booking process from start to finish was so easy and straightforward, and Zoe, their event coordinator was such a joy to work with! My husband and I really wanted to stick with fun, delicious, stick to your ribs food for our wedding and we got JUST that. The food was incredible! We are so happy that we decided to go with Salvage. I would recommend them a million times over!
This food was amazing! Everyone complimented it after the wedding. The leftovers were great too! They worked with us through changing wedding locations due to COVID and it was a breeze.
This is such a great spot for BBQ in Portland but as great as the restaurant is, their catering service is even more phenomenal! Zoe was always quick to reply, professional, and made everything so easy day-of. From the tasting all the way to clean up she was always on top of things and so helpful! The food was excellent and best of all they wrap up all the leftovers for you to keep. I highly recommend them for your special day!
Zoe was awesome, from the initial contact to the execution. Very professional, kept in contact the whole time leading up to my daughters wedding and kept us informed. My daughter was married on an island so there were plenty of logistical things to be taken care of. Not a single hitch. Of course the salvage BBQ was awesome. always is. Would recommend for any special event.

Salvage catered our August 2018 wedding and, as expected, they were wonderful. We already knew from being Portland locals that we loved Salvage's food. In regards to catering for our wedding they were always prompt with communication, flexible with my indecisiveness, and very self efficient, timely, and friendly on the day of the wedding. The food tasted great, guests raved about it, and confessed how they went back for not just seconds, but thirds! Also, in this day of crazy wedding prices, Salvage was one of the best deals in town, especially given their reputation and great food. Would highly recommend them without reservation!
We were married in May of 2017 in Portland. We chose Salvage after a friend who used them for their wedding told us about how awesome they were.
Choosing which dishes we wanted and how we wanted it served was seamless and easy. Zoe completely walked us through every decision and answered questions quickly.
The day of everything ran perfectly. And the food is so good. The Mac and cheese, the brisket, the slaw, the cornbread...it’s incredible barbecue!
